Linger Longer in Laos
A destination of breathtaking, unspoilt scenery, Laos sees fewer travellers than her more famous neighbours, but here you’ll find
the heart of Indochina.
Though a landlocked and mountainous country, the Mekong River runs through nearly 1,900 kilometres of this Buddhist nation’s territory and is a vital part of daily life.
Simplicity and a relaxed sense of grace – this is the beauty of Laos and the best way to discover it is through remote retreats and specialised itineraries taking you to the heart of the country.
